ICONYC is delighted to welcome back Rafa'EL to the label with his brand-new 'Diopside EP'. The talented Polish producer has been a well-known entity within the scene and have graced some of the world's finest electronic music labels with his unique and timeless productions.

On his return Rafa'EL leads with the outstanding 'Diopside'; a stunning driving melodic progressive house affair. The track utilizes a deep groove as foundation, underpinned by a profound bass and smooth synth chords that gradually ease their way to the summit. Unified by a relentless kick drum and dusky atmospheric emotion, the composition climaxes by adding recurrent percussive elements and soft soaked melodies that come together to create a structured sphere of sonic satisfaction. Clever synth phrases complete the picture and create an ingeniously worked piece of art.

The electronica downtempo soundscapes of the accompanying title track 'A Matter of Time' round off this spectacular release. Rafa'EL's influences are immediately evident as subtle freeform concepts drift through percussive inspired instrumentations. Rippling melodies trip along a smooth groove that anchors an auricular montage to create a special sonic infused moment, accompanied by a subtle chord line that is going to leave a mark on your aural perception. Classy stuff!

Rafa'EL has developed a unique style which endeared him to us; having established credentials as masters of his craft. With his return to CONYC, he takes his talents a step further to round off this brilliant underground 2 track crowd pleaser. 'Diopside' is certain to find its way into the playlists of the big-boys brigade. Another essential ICONYC release from the heart, for the dance loving soul. Not to be missed!
